Ben Goessling of ESPN expects the Minnesota Vikings to target Peterson significantly in the team's passing game this season. (ESPN)
Fantasy Impact:
Peterson caught 43 passes in 2009, so the 40-to-50 catches Goessling references isn't out of the question. AP has already indicated he expects to see more time as the team's third-down back, which would give him more opportunities to catch passes out of the backfield. This would increase his value overall, especially in PPR leagues.
